Juventus – shut up already! Shhh, we mean it!
Fifa has said Italy may be thrown out of the qualifying
campaign for Euro 2008 if Juventus continue to fight relegation to
Serie B for match-fixing in the courts. Juve were relegated to Serie B and docked 17 points for trying to
exert influence over referees; now they're trying to take their appeal
to a civil court.
That would be against Fifa's rules and could lead to the Italian Football Federation being suspended.
I now have a mental image of Sepp Blatter, dressed as Dr Evil, telling Juve coach Didier Deschamps to 'Ssssh!'
